[Well, this is a little familiar. Turning the tables from a few weeks back, only instead of spooky-ass ghost deer, it's pain in the ass fire imps. And instead of hanging around the forest at night, it's the middle of a volcanic warzone. Way to one-up the stakes for him, bud.]
You just don't do these things halfway.
[Not that she seems to hear him. Much as one good turn deserves another—she hadn't abandoned Jason to his cut rate horror-movie fate, after all—Ramir is knee deep in lava and there's no way in hell Jason's getting close enough to shake her out of it and coming out of that in one piece. Instead, he sticks to higher ground. Draws a pistol and takes a few potshots at the increasingly aggravated imp from a more reasonable distance. Once it loops around to give him a good angle, he goes for the head.
(He's got a slightly questionable plan B in mind, if this doesn't pan out. But lets try the safer route, first.)
It hits, knocks the creature back into the lava flow, but it's hard to tell if Ramir seems to budge for it. And that thing must be hardier than it looks, because the imp crawls back up out of the lava and hisses in his direction for the interruption. He takes aim to try and shoot it down again before it can climb back onto her.]
if this doesn't work for you just punch me
